Brake Line Pressure....

Post by dustymopar »

Anyone know what pressure exists (approx) in a hydraulic brake system, when the brakes are applied?

Depends on the size and displacement of the master cylinder piston as well as the brake pedal ratio, you could be dealing with a couple of hundred PSI or over a 1000psi. It also depends on how hard you push the pedal as well....
